FINALLY! A serious Enneagram book with a sense of humor. This user-friendly guide to the Enneagram was written for guys by two guys--Nick Shell, a certified Enneagram coach, and Dr.
Ramon Presson, a licensed marriage & family therapist. Despite the increased awareness and popularity of the Enneagram, many people.
. .
a) have still not heard of the Enneagram. b) have heard of it but don't know what it is and are curious.
c) have heard of it, don't understand it, and are skeptical. d) have heard of it, don't understand it, and are actually suspicious about it.
The lack of knowledge and the misunderstanding makes sense when you see a strange word like "Enneagram" and see it represented by a geometric symbol with nine numbers and a bunch of arrows. So, the authors have sought to make the Enneagram more approachable by using the metaphor of the nine players on a baseball team positioned on the field, encouraging guys to "see the field and play your position.
"Aren't you often a mystery to yourself? Don't you find yourself asking. .
. "Why did I do that?""Why does that bother me so much?""Am I the only one here thinking this way?""Where did that reaction come from?""Why doesn't my wife understand me?"The Guy's Guide to the Enneagram will help you uncover clues to solve some of those mysteries, enabling you to become a better version of you at work and at home.
